Electrical work for Bakersfield remodels
Gabriel Mariscal handles the electrical side of remodels and additions in Bakersfield: recessed lighting, ceiling fans, new outlets and switches, and wiring for new rooms. Doing it inside the same project means the lights go in while the walls and ceilings are open, which saves patching later.

Who it's for
Homeowners remodeling a kitchen, bathroom or room who want better lighting and more outlets as part of the same job.

What changes the price
Every electrical work job is priced after Gabriel sees it, and the price is written into your contract before work starts. These are the things that move it:
| Factor | Effect |
|---|---|
| Number of fixtures and outlets | ± |
| Attic access above the room | ± |
| Whether the panel has room for new circuits | ± |
Ceiling fans earn their keep here
In a Bakersfield summer a ceiling fan is not decoration. Fans and better lighting are among the most common add-ons to a remodel here, and they are cheapest to add while the ceiling is already open.
Gabriel is based at 5008 Gaylene Ave in southeast Bakersfield and takes electrical work jobs across Bakersfield and Kern County.

Electrical Work questions
Do you take electrical-only jobs?
Electrical work is done as part of remodels and additions. A California B general building contractor can include electrical within a multi-trade project, which is how Gabriel handles it.
How many recessed lights does a kitchen need?
It depends on the ceiling height and layout, but the goal is even light over the counters with no dark corners. The layout is marked out on the ceiling before any holes are cut.
Can a ceiling fan go where a light is now?
Usually, yes, as long as the ceiling box is rated to carry a fan. If it is not, the box is replaced while the fixture is down.
